3.5mm Locking Compression Screw Self Tapping for Stable Plate Fixation

Description

The 3.5mm Locking Compression Screw Self Tapping is a critical component in modern orthopedic fixation systems, designed to deliver angular stability and secure fixation in locking plate constructs. Its locking head mechanism enables the screw to thread directly into the plate, creating a fixed-angle connection that enhances overall construct rigidity and reduces dependence on bone quality alone.

Manufactured from premium-grade stainless steel and titanium alloy, the screw offers excellent mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term biocompatibility. The self tapping thread design eliminates the need for pre-tapping, streamlining surgical workflow and reducing operative time. Precision-machined threads ensure consistent engagement with cortical bone, providing reliable fixation across a wide range of clinical applications.

With a thread diameter of 3.5mm and a core diameter of 2.8mm, the screw balances strength and flexibility, minimizing the risk of fatigue failure while maintaining secure bone purchase. The 5.0mm locking head is engineered to mate precisely with compatible locking compression plates, ensuring accurate alignment and stable load transfer across the fixation construct.

Available in an extensive length range from 10mm to 80mm, the 3.5mm Locking Compression Screw Self Tapping supports diverse anatomical requirements and fracture patterns. This broad selection allows surgeons to choose the optimal screw length for precise fixation in both metaphyseal and diaphyseal bone regions. Compatibility with a 2.8mm drill bit ensures predictable preparation and accurate screw placement.

Widely used in orthopedic trauma and reconstructive procedures, the 3.5mm Locking Compression Screw Self Tapping contributes to enhanced fixation stability, reduced micro-motion, and improved healing outcomes. Its precision engineering, material reliability, and ease of use make it a dependable choice for surgeons utilizing locking compression plate systems.
